Spinnaker : Box


Clamshell / Cardboard

Spinnaker Software released games for many systems (Commodore 64, Atari, Apple, etc.) but used identical boxes for all of them. Labels were added to identify the system the game was made for. The company started to release games in clamshell boxes and eventually switched to large cardboard boxes. The last games were released in small cardboard boxes. The box format was probably changed to reduce packaging cost.

Facemaker / Make-A-Face

On the last Facemaker box, the name had been changed to Make-A-Face. It is very particular that they had only changed the name on the box. The instruction manual and the game label stayed the same for Facemaker. A Make-A-Face box would be one of the rarest Colecovision items to be found.
